Recently I decided to go back and play a personal favorite game of mine Halo 3 ODST and some occurred to as I playing this great game. This game was not nearly shown as much love at it truly deserved. So on that note this will be the first in a new segment I will do from time to time here I call Under appreciated. The simple idea here is I am going to tell why you should pick or go back and play one of these awesome games. The first one I am going to do is you guessed it Halo 3 ODST.

The story ODST centers around a group of orbital drop shock troopers or ODSTs for short getting stuck in a city after a alien alliance known as the covenant launch their ship out and cause and EMP to go off and separate the troopers. Their one goal is to find each other and get out of the city.

Now if that hasn’t caught your attention I’ll go further you play as all member of the five man squad known as alpha-nine. What this games is great about doing is when you play as your main character the Rookie he wakes up in his drop pod 6 hours after the first assault. So, you are stumbling around this giant city looking for clues to what happened to your squad.

When you find a clue it unlocks a mission and you find a little bit more clarity as to what happen to your squad mates. Now, Halo as a whole generally has you playing as a Spartan or and alien known as a Elite, a spartan is highly advance super solider in some of the coolest iron man like armor ever.

What makes ODST different from every other game in the franchise is you may the meanest of the mean in the military but you are still a normal human. You are a super solider in powerful armor. So entering this universe for the first time you do feel a little weaker and the world does feel a bit scarier. In the other games I have seen the ODST die right in front me tons of times. Suddenly you are that ODST.

To me this is not a weakness of the game it is its biggest strength, for once we see this incredibly violent war from the eyes of one of the thousands of soldiers fighting in it and not a super solider or an alien. We see what its like from their eyes.

Granted these ODST are still badass killing machines but they are also normal humans. That’s this games best trait it is a much more personal story about solider trying to escape a city and fight another day. Of course the story does change as do their objectives but at the end of the day the story main focus is not about ending the war its about these ODSTs.

The game plays just like Halo 3 except in this game you don’t have shields, which if your wondering is the type shield you can’t see that would protect a space ship in a sci-fi movie. In this game you what is called stamina, this acts as your health and if you get hit to much you have to find a medkit and heal yourself. ODST really brings back a lot of core mechanics that was in the original Halo game.

If you love Halo 3 as much as I do then you should defiantly play this game it plays in terms of gunplay exactly the same way. Overall, Halo 3 ODST was always overlook next to the giants in this series, but deserve to be played and given the credit it deserves. It tried something new in the Halo franchise it work really well.

In recent years, I have seen something happening to a large amount of the single
players games that have been released. They have a lack of multiple save
files.

For those that do not know what save files are for in games,
I’ll explain. Save files are a function use in all games and they are much more
important to single player games. Save files allow us to save our progress
whenever we are in the game. This allows us to come back to a certain section
of the game whenever we choose.

Something
that I have noticed in a lot of games as of late is that let’s say you
finish a great game and you want to play through that game again but you don’t
want to lose all the cool stuff you did in the first run of the game. What
games normally would have is more than one save file for a whole new run of the
same game. This way you could keep the first run of the game that you beat but
then start a whole new one on a second save file.

Games like Skyrim,
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and Marvel’s Spider-Man are great examples
of games having more than one save file. Now, a trend I have watch happen over the years is
that a lot of single player games only have one save file to be able to enjoy
their games. Ubisoft games in particular being the biggest offender of this.

Games like Watch Dogs 1 and 2, Far Cry 4, Far Cry Primal, and Far Cry 5
all have only one save file. The list of games like this goes on and on. It
amazes me that games with such awesome stories and large open worlds would only
allow you to keep one save file at a time and lose all the work you put into
the game.

A reason for this could be that gamers simply don’t stick
around for the whole game anymore. It’s been stated that gamers only play a
single player game through until about the half way mark and then get bored and
move on.

So I have reason to believe that game devs simply started to
not add these extra save files to their games which is understandable; However,
I believe that there are a lot more of us that want to play through a great
game more than once to see all that the story has to offer again.

What’s frustrating is that you don’t want to lose all your
progress in your game just to play the story one more time. Could you imagine
if you wanted play to through all of Skyrim
again but lost all of your first save. That would be hundreds of hours lost in
the blink of eye.

No one is really sure why we are losing the ability to have
multiple save files and it probably is more technical in than I think. The addition
of this feature to more games would allow us to enjoy the game again and again to
really get our money’s worth.

We are starting to see that more games are bringing this
feature back, Marvel’s Spider-Man
being one of them and Just Cause 4. Whose
prior game, Just Cause 3, did not
have more than one save file.

Perhaps the lack of save files is something that will change
with time and hopefully devs will see that we want to play through their awesome
games more than once. Not by losing our progress in the process.

This year has been full of awesome games that made us laugh,
cry and say, “holy shit”. With 2018 now over, I wanted to stop and take a
moment to talk about my top five favorite games of 2018. Before I say anything
else, I want to point out that these are just my personal favorites of the year,
not the list of games that I think were the overall best by other standards.
These are the ones that I just happen to love the most.

5. Assassin’s Creed
Odyssey

Odyssey built upon AC Origins and dared to make it even
better. They really hit the nail on the head with this one. It stepped away
from being a stealth/adventure game to a more RPG/action game. If you’re a
hardcore AC fan like myself, you might understand why I was scared about this
change at first. Mostly because it is a very big transition to the serious.

I was more than surprised when I played the game. I fell in
love with the story, the characters and the setting. It was such a great
experience to feel like an actual Greek hero. I fought the Minotaur and battled
against hordes of Spartans and Athenians. The game really allowed you to play
it your way. So I’m the vain of sticking to classic AC style I was always a
sneaky assassin.

4. Spyro Reignited Trilogy

I know technically this isn’t a new game but I don’t care,
I’m putting on this list because it is a remaster that came out this year. I
love this game. I also just love Spyro. He has such a great personality and is
a fun character to play. The game is just a simple platforming game with all
kinds of fun mini games and gems to collect. SO MANY GEMS. I adored Spyro as a
kid and I am so happy to see him come back to life in the modern age of gaming.
If you haven’t picked this game up yet, why not do yourself a favor and grab it.

You can also see my full review of this game on the
multimediamouth website!

3. God of War

This game was incredible. It starts as a simple story about
a father and son spreading their wife’s/mother’s ashes on a mountain and turns
into an incredible adventure about self-discovery and destruction, lots and
lots of destruction. Kratos is a father in the game and he is much older as
well. Gone are the ways of his straight kill anything that moves method. He
becomes a man who tries to forget his violent tendencies and really just wants
to be left alone.

The relationship between Kratos and his son is a truly great
one. You can feel that they have no connection with each other at all in the
beginning of the game but you get to watch as they become a team that truly
care for one another. Plus, throwing and catching that sweet, sweet leviathan
axe was one of the best feelings all year.

2. Red Dead Redemption
2

This game was everything I wanted it to be and so much more.
It is such a different beast from the likes of the Grand Theft Auto series. Rockstar tells a more mature story in this
game. Arthur Morgan might be a better protagonist than good ole John Marston.
Yes, I said it. Arthur really tired to seek redemption towards the end of the
story and was constantly questioning what Dutch was doing. Even Dutch himself was easily one of my
favorite characters in this game. The charming yet cunning Dutch always made me
want to see what he had “planned” next.

I got to feel like a real life cowboy gunning my way through
the law and all kinds of other bandits. Bonding with your horse was a really
amazing feeling as well. I actually cared about something other than just
myself in the game. While playing, I had to take care of my horse and I really
developed a bond with him. RDR 2 was an example of gaming as an art form and it
truly felt like I was watching the best Wild West movie since The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

1. Marvel’s Spider-Man

This game right here is now one of my favorite games of all
time. If you have been reading my articles since the beginning, you know how
much I love this game. What Insomniac did with this character feels like a
breath of fresh air for Spider-Man. We got to play as a veteran super hero this
time around, not someone who trips over his own webs. The combat felt like that
of the Batman: Arkham games but with
more focus on dodging and aerial attacks than straight counter punch gadgets.

The story was spectacular. The relationship between Peter
and Otto felt fresh and made me feel like I understood what happened to Otto in
a much deeper way. Of course, you can’t forget the web-slinging. I’ll always
remember the opening moments of the game that throw you right into swinging
around New York City. I felt like Spider-Man every second of the game and that
feeling still hasn’t gone away even after my 4th, yes 4th,
run of the game. I love this game and that’s why it’s my number one game of
2018.

I hope you all had a great 2018 and happy New Year. 2019
looks to be an even better year in gaming. So let’s game on!

Now first off, let me make it clear that I love Marvel’s Spider-Man. It is an incredible
piece that Insomniac put forth and is some of their best work yet. Here is a
little bit of background into the story of the Raimi suit that happened last
week.

The Raimi suit is the nickname given to the Spider-Man suit
worn by Tobey Maguire in the Sam Raimi trilogy of the Spider-Man movies. It was
the most highly requested suit by all fans of the Spider-Man game. Marvel’s Spider-Man had a vast selection
of suits to wear in the game ranging from some of his weirder adventures like
the Ghost Spider suit to the awesome, and personal favorite of mine, the Spider
Armor MK IV.

Now, the game had three DLC come out over the last 3 months
of the year. Each DLC brought with it three new suits for the players to wear.
Every time Insomniac announced a new suit, and it not being the Raimi suit, the
fandom would freak out. We’re talking to the level of sending death threats to
people at Insomniac.

So this all came to a head when the game’s final DLC, “Silver
Lining”, came out with no Raimi suit and the fandom lost it. They felt betrayed
by Insomniac and began to tarnish the amazing game they had brought to us this
year.

This sparked the article I’m bringing to you. Last week, Insomniac
gave us the much wanted Raimi suit and some people decided to start saying that
the trolls had won. This is not at all the case. Insomniac has always put forth
their best work and have tried to make awesome games for us to play and enjoy.

I can’t stand by and let people think that whining for one
suit in a game and finally getting it means that they won. It’s not a battle
between us and the devs at any game studio. They are developing these games for
us to enjoy and play so that we can all come together under the banner of being
a gamer. The mentality of “us vs. them” is wrong.

Insomniac brought us the best Spider-Man game to date and
I’ll stand by that, period. The game is mechanically, narratively, and even
graphically spectacular. It’s a testament to them being a great studio. They
made this game for us fans of Spider-Man and brought all the suits that Marvel
would let them use.

It’s not just as easy as saying, “Hey, let’s make that suit and
throw it in there”. No, there is a lot of red tape that has to be crossed and a
lot of people have to sign off just to get this suit in the game. It is sad to
think that if people don’t get exactly what they want, they to start call the
game trash even though it is the furthest thing from it.

These people who threaten devs are not right in any way. Studios
like Insomniac bring out some really amazing games for us to enjoy for years
and years. They make mistakes because no one is perfect. We should be happy
that we live in a time where devs will even hear us out in the first place.

This mentality that has been developed among gamers is not
right. We as gamers should be more supportive and learn to positively encourage
the people who create our games so that they can make even better games. The Raimi
suit debacle is just one of the many examples of this type of behavior from
fans. This gamer feels that it’s time for that to change. Insomniac, thank you
from the bottom of my heart for making a sensational Spider-Man game.

Now, I’d be the first to say that while I wanted to see Marvel’s Spider-Man win the game of the
year at the Game Awards, I thought for sure that Red Dead Redemption 2 had this one in the bag.

However, this was not the case as God of War took home the award for game of the year. I was just as
surprised as anyone to find out that this game won over Red Dead. Every year,
after the Game Awards, I take some time to go back and play whatever game won
the award for the year. After a few hours of playing God of War again, I can really see why it beat the others.

From the leviathan axe rushing back to your hand during a
fight, to the overall look of Midgard and the other realms, the game is so
immensely huge. For a world so huge it tells such a personal story about a
father and son trying to spread their wife/mothers ashes.

Now, I want to say that I love Red Dead 2. It’s an awesome
game with an amazing story. It has fun gameplay and an massive open world to
explore. That’s when I came to the realization that God of War has the exact same formula used in the original Red Dead Redemption. It is a game with an
amazing story about redemption with an epic open world that, again, has tons of
stuff to explore.

This isn’t a bad thing at all. However, it just proves that
Rockstar can use the same formula and make an even more an insanely great game the
second time around. The reason God of War
won is because of this same fact.

God of War
completely reinvented itself in every way, from core mechanics to Kratos
himself. The game was not at all like the ones before it.

Kratos wasn’t a rage monster with a singular goal. He was a man
trying to learn how to be a good father to a son. You could see a man in the
eyes of this Kratos and not the monster I remember from God of War 3.

God of War
gameplay wasn’t even the same because it opted from using the usual smash square
and then triangle a bunch of times to kill what’s in your way to a friendlier Dark Souls style of combat, just not as
difficult.

God of War’s
reinvention turned a game series that was all about blood (and more blood) and
that had, quite honestly, an unlikeable protagonist into a game that still has a
ton of blood but slow things down to explain that life is more than just having
awesome power and no responsibly. You get to see Kratos show his son to better
than he was. It also made Kratos into someone I cared for and that made him one
of my favorite video game characters.

Due to these simple facts, God of War deserved the game of the year award.

On December 6th, The Game Awards 2018 will be coming around again and this year the lineup is shaping up to be an incredible award show. With rumors of all kinds of trailers from the likes of Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell to even the possibility of an Avenger game announcement.

With that being said, below are the nominees for not only game of the year but every other category for the award show. The game I’ll be talking a little bit about today is the one I want to win the game of the year award.

Now, it stands to reason that Red Dead Redemption 2 will be taking the award home on Thursday. However, the game I feel has the best chance to rival it is Marvel’s Spider-Man. The game was insanely entertaining on all fronts of its roughly 20 hour story.

Mechanically speaking, the best part of the game that Insomniac nailed was the web slinging. I am a huge fan of the web head. This is such an important part of feeling like you are Spidey. Insomniac used the perfect amount of fluidity to give you the sensation of being Spider-Man as you speed around the concrete jungle of New York.

The story is also incredible. It is set 8 years after he was by the radioactive spider. Spider-Man is a veteran hero at this point and knows what he is doing. Without any spoilers, the relationship he has with his mentor is such a fresh take on the characters being used.

Everything down to the collectibles of this game are amazing and gives us the Spider-Man game we have always deserved. I feel that this game really earns the title of game of the year.

The Game Awards is on Thursday and you can catch it on most steaming services. It’s starts at 5 p.m. PST. So tune in and see which of your favorite games will win big at The Game Awards.

Toys for Bob did something truly incredible with the Spyro Reignited Trilogy. It gave the games a splash of life. There are so many other incredible series from older generation consoles that need that same kind of love and attention.

There are games, like Sly Cooper, where you play as a raccoon thief and his gang of friends. The games were pure stealth fun. The most important part of the game was the way they used stealth. Sly was a quick and quiet character and could only take so many hits before dying. The key of the game was to remain unseen. The potential for the Sly Cooper trilogy to be revamped would be amazing if it received the same level of love that Toys for Bob gave Spyro.

Now, I’m aware that there was a PS3 release for this game (as do some of the other series I’ll be mentioning), but I’m simply talking about the re-releasing of old titles. They would look amazing if done in the same way Toys for Bob did for Spyro.

Another series that found its way to a PS4 reboot was Ratchet and Clank. I loved this series growing up. The first three games were some of the most fun I had as a kid. Ratchet and Clank were two of the funniest characters. Clank was the brain and Ratchet was the badass Lombax we know and love.

We already have a clear image of what the game series should look like, so why not bring back the original three games for this generation to play? These games have so much charm and humor that they are timeless. It would be a perfect project for studios like Toys for Bob to revitalize.

Out of all of the games I have mentioned, the series I’d like to see more than any other is Jak and Daxter. That series of games has so much personality and the one of the most well thought out plots of its time. If you have never played these games, the PS4 has a bundle for the original three and a companion game Cart Racers Jak X: Combat racing. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a solid platform experience.

Since it’s already on the PS4, it’s unlikely we will get to see it remastered in the Toys for Bob way. However, I would still love to see how the world of Jak and Daxter would pop on modern fortmats. The series was owned by Naughty Dog and the studio gave the games so much love back in the day.

It would be great to see these games brought back to life so new generations can discover the stories about Jak and his idiotic partner Daxter. They can even laugh and rage at the funny one liners that Daxter delivers with every couple of deaths.

These are so many games that I feel need a Toys for Bob style update. Most of these games can still be played on the PS4, thanks to PlayStation. I highly recommend giving them a look if you are a fan of some solid platforming games. Game on everyone!

Toys for Bob recently released one of the most incredible remasters in years: Spryo Reignited Trilogy. After playing and completing one hundred percent of these two incredible games, I have moved on to Spyro: Year of the Dragon. With the utmost certainty, I can tell you, Spyro is back and better than ever. Gone are the days of Skylanders: Spyro’s Adventure and whatever that game was trying to do. Back is the awesome purple dragon I have come to love.

First off, the game is beautiful. All three of the games look exactly the way I had pictured them in my head since I was a little kid playing on the original PlayStation. I know that some of the redesigns of the characters and enemies got some hate for the way they look now, but honestly, I love the way Toys for Bob has recreated all these amazing characters. Back in the day, the models for these characters were all blocky polygons, so it took some imagination to visualize how some of the characters looked. Today, the game has colors that are truly awesome. Overall, the graphics are amazing.

Mechanically, I feel this game plays even better now. For those of you who are worried if they capture the same feel as the originals, do not fear. Toys for Bob remade everything, down to about the exact frame as the original games. For example, the way the charge attack feels when you hit an enemy or break a pot is incredible. The fluidity of the movements has improved to such extent that even attempting super charge runs in levels like Tree Top is significantly easier. Mind you, Tree Top, still requires the correct timing, but it was so much easier to run than in the originals. However, the games don’t feel too different. It’s still the Spyro we know and love, it simply has a smoother ride when playing.

The story across all three games are different adventures for Spryo. Spyro: Year of the Dragon has much more of a plot than the other two games. However, this is a callback to the 90’s experience of the story. Gameplay took the forefront while the story took a supporting role. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing—sometimes as a gamer we want to just have a nice, easy game that tells us where to go and what to collect. Spyro is just plain old fun and the little story that goes along with it is really has some great humor in it. Hearing Spyro be the king of sass adds so much joy to the game. If you were wondering who is the voice behind our dear purple dragon, it is none other than Tom Kenny. He actually redid the lines for the original game as well so that we have one clear voice for Spyro.

Overall, SpyroReignited Trilogy is a faithful and incredible return to form for the purple dragon. Whether you are playing it for the nostalgia or if you are a newcomer to the series, you will find the game has so much to offer in either regards. The game is roughly around 20 hours to beat if you put 100% effort into all three games. It also has the nice price of only forty dollars. I highly recommend you give these games a try. Playing Spyro was some of the most fun I had as a kid. I couldn’t be more happy to see them brought back to life in such an amazing way. I hope to see Toys for Bob continue their journey with Spyro and make brand new games for new generations to see. The purple dragon is back and that’s why I give this game a perfect 10/10 rating. Now go and find those gems everyone!

In the wake of the unfortunate death of my personal hero Stan Lee I thought it be appropriate to talk about some of my favorite cameos in video games and then just talk a little bit about what This Amazing man has done for me and for all of us.

It’s no secret that Stan lee has made some really great cameos over the years in a whole lot of different films but did you guys know Stan Lee has also had some really awesome and funny cameos in games as well.

One of my personal Favorites is the recent Marvels Spider-man where we see the man himself talk to Mary Jane saying how “He always like you two together,” about her and Peter Parker. I love it because it came really out of nowhere it made the game feel like a real movie almost because we got to see Stan Lee do his famous Cameo. I feel having him in this game was actually quite important to Marvel fans.

He also Appeared in The Lego Marvel super hero game and as an unlockable character and a the character you save in each level to get a gold brick. This I found to be so much fun because in the original game if you held down the Y or triangle button, ( depending on what console you were playing on) he would turn in to a Stan Lee version of the Hulk. and yes it is as cool as it sounds.

One of my other favorites is also in another Spider-man game, Spider-man shattered dimension. He was narrator for the game, and I loved this it made the game feel more like a comic book I was getting read too by Stan himself. He really loved doing Narrations and being a part of his characters games. Having him pop up from time to time and drop some lines into the game made it that much more fun for me to play.

Like I said at the beginning I also wanted to take this time in the article this week to Thank Stan Lee for all that he has given us. I think without his brilliant mind and creativity that brought this character to life, I feel that pop culture would be a very different place. Without Marvel and characters like the X-men and Spider-Man, comics wouldn’t have survived this long, Spider-man himself is one of the most important super heroes in comics.

Stan gave us all a family to be part of. we are not just fans of his comics we are true believers. Without Stan Lee in my life and the lives of so man others I don’t know what kind of person I’d be today. With the great words of Peters Uncle Ben, “With great power, must also come great responsibility,” I like to say that those words have guided me through the best and worst of times. And I know that Stan Lee embodied those words as well. He knew that these incredible characters touch the lives of so many people and let us know we were never alone.

So I say to you all from the bottom of my heart Stan Lee, thank you for this amazing legacy you have left for us to hold onto. Us true believers will never let go of the amazing, incredible and dare I say invincible story you left behind. Goodbye Stan Lee. Excelsior!

Currently playing: Marvel’s Spider-man

With October over, the first week of November begins and with it, we get more more video games. A note on my process—obviously there quite a lot of games coming out this month as every month—to help keep it simple and I’ve compiled a list of all the new releases. Have no fear. Here are the top games for November.

Side note: these lists will include games I’m playing, but also games that are either worth a look or just down right fun.

Diablo 3 Eternal Collection: November 2nd, 2018

Now this is simply an export over to the Nintendo switch, so you are probably wondering why I’m bring it up? The reason is that Diablo is a great series that I have lost my fair share of hours too. Blizzard’s well known RPG saga is a great dungeon crawler, with major mechanic grinding for that sweet sweet loot. If you are into grindy games, and are looking for something to take on the go with your switch, I recommend picking this up.

Hitman 2: November 13th, 2018

Hitman 2 is the sequel to incredible Hitman (2016) except this time around the game is shipping with all of it levels in the game on day one. Instead of going with the episodic style of the 2016 version. The biggest new mechanic to this game is the additions of a multiplayer mode. You and friend can play the same level with the same target with objective to kill the target faster than each other. This new addiction to Hitman really has me interested in all the options of screwing with my friends and exploring option to kill faster. It’s one of the game I’ll be picking up for sure.

Spyro the reignited trilogy: November 13th, 2018

Here we have the game I am most excited to play Spyro: the ReignitedTrilogy. This game first of all is visually breath taking. Toysforbob did a amazing job of updating the graphics and the characters of the game. They updated the music, with the help of Stewart Copeland, the man who composed it originally. This game includes all 3 of the original Spyro titles, Spyro the dragon, Spyro riptos rage, and Spyro the year of the dragon. I can’t begin to tell you how excited I am to play these amazing games again. If you never played before and you like platform, collectathon styles games be sure to pick this one up.

Fallout 76: November 14, 2018

I am a huge fallout fan. I have played from 3 up and really love the series. However, I am a little more on edge about this particular title as it is totally online. That’s right you and up to 4 friends can party up and explore the wasteland together. In the place of NPC (Non-Playable Characters) other players explore the map with you. The map is much larger than the one in Fallout 4 to make room for you and your friends to work together to survive and rebuild the wasteland. This is Bethesda’s first go at a MMO style game. I love their games and I really hope this game ends up going well for them.

Pokemon Lets Go: November 16th, 2018

Pokemon Lets Go is a re-imagining of Pokemon Yellow. Depending on which game you buy, you either get Pikachu or Eevee as your starter. The big issue with the release is you can only do battle now with other trainers. This differs from the more or less anyone can battle style like in previous titles. It leans heavily towards Pokemon GO. For instance, when you are capturing Pokemon in the game you simply throw Poke-balls at them instead of doing battle. Now this isn’t me saying the game is going to be bad, it actually looks like it’ll be quite fun, and the game is simply using mechanics they know work from the mobile game. This looks to be a lot of fun and I can’t wait to give it a Go. (No pun intended)

Battlefield 5: November 20th, 2018

Battlefield 5 is set back in World War 2 and it looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun. It looks to be a lot of the same style of game-play that battlefield has used to build its reputation. I am glad to see them going back to World War 2 because this is where one of Battlefield’s strongest titles came from. The game is also going to be introducing its own battle royale mode. It will be launching a little after the game comes out. The story mode that battlefield 1 used will also be returning to tell different stories about people and their time in the war.

Darksiders 3: November 27th, 2018

The 3rd installment of game series I personally love has you playing as Fury one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse. Visually the game looks amazing. Fury’s whip makes every movement in combat look stylish and fierce. Her story takes place during the events of the first 2 games. So I am curious to see if we will learn more about what happen to Death at the end of the second game. This game looks really fun and I am excited to give it a go.

Those are my tops picks for November 2018. What games are you going to pick up? Hope this article helped save your wallets some cash. Game on everyone!
